    The cause might be that you made some mistakes while editing the CSS file, or even that you didn't edit the CSS file at all... Anyway, feel free to pm me for detailed help, or wait for someone more expert than me to post here. :)

    you probably didn't change the location of the files
    for example your folder name is xyz. but in the css file it says mainchat.png is in Classic theme folder. (Classic/Mainchat.png) instead of (xyz/Mainchat.png)

    Good luck.

    If you are talking about changing images i.e .png files, then here is what you have to do. Open up your CSS file and replace NAME with the name of your theme and save it. Keep it in mind that you have to do this for every other code that involves an image that you are going to change.
    Or...if you are trying to observe changes of your code that involves colors and gradients, then all you have to do is make your necessary changes to the CSS file and save it making sure that the code you entered is correct. Then you can click on Style --> Reload Style Sheets in order to observe the changes (or you could close PO entirely and reopen your client, then select your theme and it should work)
